5-1 Solving Inequalities by Addition & Subtraction Objectives: Solve linear inequalities by using addition Solve linear inequalities by using subtraction
Solving Inequalities • To solve inequalities we apply the same rules as solving equations. • Instead of our answer being one number, we will have a set of numbers as our answer.
Example 1: Solve a) b)
Set-Builder Notation • Writing a solution as: • Read: “the set of all numbers x such that x is greater than or equal to 6” • Solutions can be graphed on a number line. • If the endpoint is NOT included in the graph use an open circle, other wise use a filled-in circle.
Example 2: Solve, write your answer in set-builder notation. a) b)
Verbal problems containing phrases like greater than or less than can be solved by using inequalities. The chart shows other phrases that indicate inequalities.

If one season pass costs $54.99 and Noah has $100 to spend on both passes, the second pass must cost no more than what amount?
